The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

"Oh? Someone is already here?"

The voice coming from behind was a woman's. Zeng Wenyu was sure that he had never heard this voice before, which meant that the person behind him was neither Bai Jie and the others, nor the monks from the small alliance before.

Turning around and looking behind him, he saw that it was indeed a strange woman. However, calling her a woman might be a bit far-fetched. The woman standing behind Zeng Wenyu should be called an old lady in every aspect except her voice.

The old woman was leaning on a rattan cane and her movements were a little slow, but the fluctuations of her late Infant Realm cultivation were not weak at all.

"Young man, since you got here before me, have you found any treasures here?"

The old woman's tone was very kind, but her actions were not kind at all. The rattan cane in her hand was stuck on the ground, and a large number of vines spread towards Zeng Wenyu, trying to entangle Zeng Wenyu.

"Old lady, this is not very polite. I haven't said anything yet, and you are ready to attack me?" Zeng Wenyu said to the old woman as he backed away.

"My philosophy is to capture you first. After I search your storage devices, I can prove whether what you said is a lie or not."

As the old woman finished her words, the vines spread even faster, forcing Zeng Wenyu into the corner and wrapping around his legs along his feet.

Zeng Wenyu would not surrender. He took out a long knife from his storage bag and chopped the vines with the blade. Unfortunately, the long knife in his storage bag was just an ordinary long knife. The vines were cut, but the sturdy vines and Zeng Wenyu's strength directly broke the long knife.

"What a hard vine!" "What a strong force!"

Zeng Wenyu and the old woman said it almost at the same time, but in comparison, Zeng Wenyu seemed to be at a disadvantage.

The vine grew out from under the rattan cane in the old woman's hand. As long as the old woman's spiritual energy continued, the vine would be endless. However, Zeng Wenyu did not have a suitable weapon in his hand. He had to use an ordinary sword every time he chopped. As the vine grew, no matter how many sharp weapons Zeng Wenyu had in his storage bag, they would be consumed and finally entangled by the vines.

There were not many weapons in the storage bag. After Zeng Wenyu broke his long sword several times, the weapons in his storage bag were used up. However, the vines spreading from under the old woman's crutches were still endless and had begun to wrap around Zeng Wenyu's legs.

Zeng Wenyu looked around quickly, hoping to find a weapon that suits him, but apart from the statues, he could not see any weapons.

"Boiled!"

The vines had already wrapped around Zeng Wenyu's waist. He couldn't help but curse, then gritted his teeth, reached out to grab the scales on the dragon sculpture, and broke off a piece of stone-carved dragon scale.

"It was agreed that this was the body of the demon king. These dragon scales must not really be just stones!"

Thinking of this, Zeng Wenyu pinched the dragon scale and scratched it on the vines. The dragon scale, which looked like just stone, easily scratched the vines. All the vines broke and fell off his body.

"Hmm? Sure enough, there is a treasure. It can easily cut the old woman's vines. The dragon scale must be extraordinary. Boy, throw the dragon scale over here and I will let you go!"

"Bah! Old man, do you really think I'm stupid? If I give you this dragon scale, I won't have any weapon that can cut your vines. Then you can still tie me up however you want. How can I have any chance to resist?"

The old woman frowned. On one hand, she controlled the vines to continue to entangle Zeng Wenyu, and on the other hand, she separated a part of the vines to climb up the dragon statue, trying to use the vines to pull all the dragon scales off the dragon statue.

The vines were entangled with the statue, but no matter how the old woman controlled the vines, she could not pull any scales off the statue. Even a large number of vines suddenly broke and fell off.

"Ok?"

A doubtful sound came out of the old woman's throat. She really couldn't understand why it was just a stone statue, so why could it cut off her vines.

Still forcing Zeng Wenyu into a corner, the old woman walked towards the statue. She wanted to take a closer look at what the dragon statue looked like.

"The demon clan emperor led his troops to fight against the heavens, and killed 30% of the evil cultivators in the heavens. He left his body here for future cultivators to fight against the heavens again?" Walking to the side of the statue, the old woman read the words engraved below the statue, "What do you mean by leading the troops to fight against the heavens? Where is the heaven to be conquered? I have been a cultivator for my whole life, isn't it just to ascend to the upper realms? If we really fight with the upper realms, will I still be able to ascend?! The demon clan is indeed the demon clan, just doing these bluffing things, fighting against the heavens? In my opinion, the cultivators in the upper realms are more likely to kill you, the evil dragon!"

"Roar!!!!!"

Just as the old woman finished her words, a dragon roar sounded from inside the statue. The old woman's face suddenly changed, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth. She flew backwards and fell to the ground in the distance. At the same time, the vines in front of the statue quickly withered and finally turned into dust on the ground.

"How is that possible! It's just a lifeless sculpture..."

Before the old woman could finish her words, several stone sculptures beside her suddenly moved. They pounced towards the old woman, as if to punish her for her rude words.

But how could the old woman be so? The rattan crutch in her hand grew rapidly, and a large number of vines wrapped around the stone sculptures, tightly binding their joints. The stone sculptures had their own strength, but they encountered the vines that restrained them the most, and for a while they could do nothing to the old woman.

"Pah!" The old woman spit out a mouthful of blood and slowly stood up from the ground. "Who dares to attack me? Just a bunch of stone lumps with no cultivation?"

Is it really a lump of stone? Zeng Wenyu expressed doubt. The dragon sculpture next to him was said to be the body of the emperor. Who were the subordinates led by this demon emperor? Weren't they the demon beasts on this corridor? Maybe these demon beasts also left their bodies here to protect the demon emperor?

Just as Zeng Wenyu was thinking this, he heard a "crack" sound coming from beside the old woman. Just as Zeng Wenyu thought, the stones on those stone sculptures, those stone sculptures of monsters, were breaking, and the strong body of the monster could be seen under the fallen stones.

Obviously, the old woman also noticed the changes in the stone sculptures at the first time. She immediately took out a pill from her storage ring and swallowed it, pulled the rattan wooden crutch from the ground, and quickly cut off the vines at the root of the rattan wooden crutch. Then the old woman turned around and ran away quickly to the other end of the passage.
